My Snap-On guy retired at 60, owns a bunch of land, has a huge garage and wood-working shop. He also ended up buying a lot of 'distressed' independent garages throughout his years as a salesman. He now owns a considerable number of income producing properties. The guy that bought his route is also doing well. It's a lot of hard work, but I think the company provides pretty good support and makes a great product - if you're willing to work, and like that type of work, it can be a good career!
